Thought about it ... but honestly i can´t pick one ....
Not that i like all Motuc the same way ... but ...
There´s no one that i bought with an hyper feeling to get him and ended up with a disappointing piece of plastic in my hand

As with all of his incarnations, Stratos should be cool, but he just seems kinda... I dunno, doesn't really work IMO. As I've said in countless threads (both vintage and new), his drab grey colour does him no favours - I'd much rather see him in the silvery blue of his boxart (and some other appearances, such as the UK Ladybird books).

Zodac... I know some may disagree with me on this. But just doesn't do much for me. I mean, I know in terms of concept he's a cool character (though in my "Universe" Skeletor turned him Evil, to bring him into line with his original vintage status), but in terms of a figure, I'm gonna say it, I find him pretty boring to be honest.

I'm surprised I've gone for these two, as the early, original two waves are where my heart lies. But even some of the later characters that I don't really care about, make better figures that these guys IMO.

Between the two... I think Zodac gets my vote. Stratos just escapes my nomination because I desperately want to like him.

Webstor. After the awesome staction version, i was hoping the MOTUC version would lean a bit more 200x on him cause I really wanted and action figure version of him. Too puffy and smooth; almost looks like a kiddifed spiderman in my eyes.

Second would be Mossman, Never got a true MYP version of him in the 200x line (he had to be a flocked beastman), and in the classics, they skimped on parts that could have made him both vintage and 200x (clip on shinguards and removable mantle).

i cannot begin to understand the amount of negativity towards stratos the figure is perfect and highly detailed, i remember watching them before the line kick-started and my thought was that he had to be the best!

all the figures have been great. we may have expectations of some figures but other than a few disagreements from fans the classics figures all have been good.

first release of He-Man with red cheeks
first release of Grayskull
Zodak not having extra head
Stratos not being able to hold weapons & sock feet
Teela no perch for zoar
Evil Lyn not having extra head
Webstor the rope on the pack can be a problem
Moss Man 200x head doesn't look MYP

I voted "other", cuz it's none of them (so far) imo. Sure, I've passed (and will pass) on a few characters, but not for any sculpting reasons. I don't have a Green Goddess, Webstor, Zodak, Scareglow, Optikk, or Count Marzo, and I'm passing on Carnivous and Gygor, just due to no real connection to/knowledge of those characters (just recently picked up a He-ro as my view on him has changed in his favor, lol).

Later, if my Son decides he wants those guys (as he'll be watching both series'), I'll pick 'em up, no bones about it.

Randor. I feel like I should be asking the Burger King for a Whopper and Some onion rings with the zesty sauce. Maybe they should put a drive thru in at the ol Castle Grayskull so even Skeletor can have it his way.

Really wish they woulda went with a different body for him, 200X all the way on him.

For me Buzz-Off. A real shame, because the body itself is really awesome, but that ridiculous vintage head just kills the figure for me.
Not looking forward to him at all.

Fictional characters are just that. Fictional. They have no personality or free will of their own.
Writers and editors mold them to their own wants and needs.
All we as the audience and fans can do is pick and choose our favorite interpretation and ignore the rest.
